<p>Zones allow you to specify certain regions on earth (for now). When a device tracker sees a device
to be within a zone, the state will take the name from the zone. Zones can also be used as a
<a href="/components/automation.html#zone-trigger">trigger</a> or <a href="/components/automation.html#zone-condition">condition</a>
inside automation setups.</p>
<p>Zones support the usual method to specify multiple zones, use keys <code>zone:</code>, <code>zone 2:</code> etc.</p>
<pre><code class="yaml"># Example configuration.yaml entry
zone:
name: School
latitude: 32.8773367
longitude: -117.2494053
# Optional radius in meters (default: 100)
radius: 250
# Optional icon to show instead of name
icon: group-work
zone 2:
name: Work
latitude: 32.8753367
longitude: -117.2474053
# This will override the default home zone
zone 3:
name: Home
latitude: 32.8793367
longitude: -117.2474053
radius: 100
icon: social:people
</code></pre>
<h4><a class='title-link' name='home-zone' href='#home-zone'></a> Home zone</h4>
<p>If no configuration is given, the zone component will create a zone for home. This zone will use
location given in the <code>configuration.yaml</code> file and have a radius of 100 meters. To override this,
create a zone configuration and name it &lsquo;Home&rsquo;.</p>
<h4><a class='title-link' name='icons' href='#icons'></a> Icons</h4>
<p>It is preferred to pick an icon to use for your zone. By default, Home Assistant includes most of the
<a href="https://www.google.com/design/icons/">material icons</a>. See <a href="https://github.com/balloob/home-assistant-polymer/blob/master/src/resources/home-assistant-icons.html#L3">the source</a> for a specific list which
categories are included.</p>
<p>For all but the action category you will need to prefix the icon name with its category. For example
<code>social:people</code> or <code>av:radio</code>. For the action category, you will not need to do this, examples are
<code>home</code>, <code>work,</code>, <code>group-work</code> and <code>shopping-cart</code>.</p>
